It's because there's no one standing next to them to scare the crap out of when it happens.


I was at my friends once where he was fixing his flat on the MTB. Business as usual until the tube blew. The bang scared the crap out of us, however the percussive shock from the explosion really made our heads hurt He had not checked for bead pinches

Damn that was loud in that small room I haven't been the same since and inflating bike tires indoors makes me apprehensive I still do it, but I'm always taken back to that event many years ago. The funny thing was it happen to him twice that day
